What the map shows
The color is Zillow's typical home value for the city: the middle of the market, not the price of any one listing. Across the 434 cities here it runs from $136,570 in Lauderdale Lakes to $10,102,254 in Jupiter Island. The dot size follows the Census population, so a large pale dot is a big, cheaper city and a small dark one is usually a beach town or an island.
Switch the color to the 1-year change to see where values are rising and where they are slipping. Orange dots fell over the past year, gray ones held about flat, teal ones rose.
